  No published figure covers depth, so learn it as you fish. Where the bottom changes texture, fish gather; find that line. On a natural lake the weed line and the shelf beyond it do the work. Survey and observation records for Parry Sound District include smallmouth bass, pumpkinseed, yellow perch, northern pike and rock bass. It is the county picture; the agency list is water-specific.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Climate normals give 19°C for July and -9°C for January. Seasons are distinct, and each one fishes differently. Count the season from break-up, usually mid April. The water is typically free of ice between mid April and early December. The strong weeks are the first after break-up and the last before the freeze. The season on Lone Tree Lake follows the weather closely.

• Tackle & Baits

  We have no record of the rules that apply on this bank. Records list it as a natural water body rather than an impoundment. No car park, ramp or path is recorded within easy reach of the shore. A small crankbait along the drop and a worm in the thick stuff cover the bass. Sort the permit out before you load the car. Close seasons apply to some species and not others. For a change of water, Wassagami Lake is 1.4 km distant. Rules at Lone Tree Lake are worth checking on the day.
